Assessing Quality Of mRNA Vaccines: Key ConsiderationsTo address the need for standards for mRNA vaccines, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) has convened vaccine experts to identify important quality attributes and to propose test methods that can be used to assess mRNA vaccine products. This article shares those CQAs and analytical procedure tips.
SUPPLY CHAIN VIDEOS
Tune in as Roberta Duncan, VP of the mRNA program at Seqirus; Duke Human Vaccine Institute Associate Director of Upstream and Downstream Process Development Jason Dickens, Ph.D.; and Jin Zhou, Executive Director of Process Development for mRNA and Protein Biologics at Ultragenyx share supply chain and manufacturing capacity constraints in the face of the urgency to address COVID-19. This is an excerpt from the Bioprocess Online Live event - mRNA Manufacturing: Bright Future, Big Challenges.
Unlock the full potential of your pDNA purification with advanced chromatography solutions and resins that tackle high viscosity and impurities to ensure superior quality and yield.
In this Advancing RNA Live clip, CMC consultant Sujit Jain unpacks the levels of maturity he’s observed in process and analytical development, as well as supply chain. While vaccines and liver-targeting therapeutics boast what we can call a reproducible platform today, targeted LNP therapies introduce a handful of scale-up sensitivities and characterization hurdles.
In this opening Advancing RNA Live clip, panelists Max De Long, April Sena, and Venkat Krishnamurthy share the biggest scientific and manufacturing breakthrough made in the world of gRNA production over the past year.
